Lyrics

[00:04.76] .
[00:07.07] Oh look at me so ordinary, no mystery,
[00:13.76] with no great capabilities,
[00:16.20] But I could make out as if I had it but you know,
[00:21.58] God I''m so obvious and I should let it go,
[00:25.20] oh I don''t know.
[00:27.26] .
[00:28.39] I''m no teenage icon,
[00:33.08] I''m no Frankie Avalon,
[00:35.33] I''m nobody''s hero.
[00:39.39] .
[00:44.14] Preserved and shy, your average guy,
[00:48.33] No piercing stare, just out of shape with messy hair,
[00:53.39] But I always figured I was somebody who''d wait,
[00:58.78] And now I''m guessing
[01:00.28] that my moment must be late cause I need it, oh
[01:07.90] .
[01:08.46] I''m no teenage icon,
[01:10.28] I''m no Frankie Avalon,
[01:12.54] I''m nobody''s hero.
[01:17.03] .
[01:39.95] I''m not magnetic or mythical,
[01:44.83] I''m suburban and typical,
[01:49.01] But I got it, I got it
[01:51.45] I''m overrun with it all.
[01:55.58] .
[02:02.70] Seductive charm a way with words so effortless
[02:09.33] Not leather clad or dangerous,
[02:11.79] But I always did it like a real rebel would,
[02:15.66]
[02:17.50] I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood,
[02:20.88] or so I''m told.
[02:23.19] .
[02:24.07] I''m no teenage icon,
[02:28.82] I''m no Frankie Avalon,
[02:30.94] I''m nobody''s hero.
[02:44.88] I''m no teenage icon,
[02:46.82] I''m no Frankie Avalon,
[02:49.20] I''m nobody''s hero.
[02:53.88] .
[02:54.45]
